The task of how to forgive these people's sins was left to Qing. Ye Chen went deep into the palace alone and came to the basement where he was before.
Ye Chen had vaguely seen a passage before, and now when he went down, he found a passage in the basement that led to an unknown direction.
Ye Chen stood at the entrance of the cave and meditated. There was no doubt that he could absorb the flames with the power of rules.
After swallowing the fallen knight last time, when he released the power of the rules of destruction, the intensity of the fire was equivalent to the beginning of the first level of the spiritual realm. This time after swallowing the power of the rules of destruction in the old king's body, his strength rose to the peak of the first level of the spiritual realm.
, which means that you can improve your strength by continuously devouring the power of the rules of destruction.
After staying for a while, Ye Chen returned to the ground, found the old king who was dying soon, and asked about the underground passage.
"That is a passage left when our imperial capital was first established. It was used to evacuate in times of crisis. I think the survivors of the city evacuated along this passage."
The old king explained.
But the old king went on to say that it was possible that the power of the Gray God penetrated from this place.
After Ye Chen thought about it for a while, he decided to go underground to find out.
The old king gave Ye Chen a map of the underground passages. They had not fully explored the entire underground, but they were certain that there were at least two passages leading to the exit, one going north and one going west.
"Our ancestors have gone through the Western Passage, and from there they will enter the central holy land of the Western World, the Phoenix Palace."
said the old king.
This made the expressions of Ye Chen and Miss Feng change slightly. They might be able to get more clues about Miss Feng's Feng clan.
"Without further ado, let's set off now."
Ye Chen spoke out, and then entered the underground passage with Miss Feng and Qing.
In the basement, mountains of skeletons can be seen everywhere. It is hard to imagine how many survivors died tragically at the hands of the old king in the past six months.
"Let's go."
Ye Chen took the lead, Qing followed in the middle, and Miss Feng followed. The three of them entered the bottomless cave.
Flames burst out in the passage, and the flames were released by Ye Chen holding the Sword of Creation.
But the strange thing is that there is almost no air circulation in the cave. According to the map, the current location is directly facing an exit, so there should be a lot of air flow.
Since he has no perception, even Ye Chen can only feel his way and explore step by step.
The three of them walked along the rugged passage and could see traces of manual excavation on the wall, but the history was already very old.
Many of the rugged passages can only be walked through by one person. This is a great psychological test for anyone. Even Qing, who has a firm belief in himself, was under a lot of pressure when walking through.
.
But both Ye Chen and Miss Feng behaved very sparsely and normally, without any changes. This made Qing Duo want to guess what these two people had experienced to forge such a strong mind.
.
I don't know how long they walked in this underground passage. The three of them kept following the footsteps that they had evacuated from the cave not long ago. Finally, light appeared in front of them, and their breathing became much smoother for a while.
"Finally we saw the exit. The map said this is the exit to the north. The Holy Khan and his party should have retreated from here."
Qing said a little excitedly.
But Ye Chen frowned and noticed something unusual, because there were many traces left by humans here.
As for whether the Holy Khan retreated from here, Ye Chen didn't know, but at least it was certain that someone passed by here.
The three of them climbed all the way towards the light source. When they reached the exit, the excitement that arose in Qing's heart was quickly extinguished when they saw the scene at the exit.
In front of you is a bottomless cliff, and the bridge leading to the other side has been broken, leaving only iron ropes hanging at the end.
Ye Chen pulled up the iron rope here. There were marks left by sword cuts on it. It was obviously deliberately damaged by someone.
"Brother Ye Chen, I smelled the scent of a ferocious beast just now. I think they were chased by monsters, and those who stayed behind cut down the bridge."
Qing, who had been silent all this time, spoke up.
"Well, look at the many footprints over there. It's obvious that some survivors have evacuated. Let's go. We don't plan to take this road anyway."
Ye Chen turned around and returned to the passage with the two of them.
As soon as he saw the light and returned to the darkness, just like Qing's mood, it became heavy again.
"This passage leads to the so-called Phoenix Temple. Let's go."
Ye Chen was the first to enter the passage connecting the other exit. Unlike before, this passage was naturally formed and therefore more rugged. Especially when passing through a section of the passage, the three of them had to climb down slowly like maggots.
After squirming through this passage, Qing had a lot of wounds all over his body.
While Qing was bandaging herself, Miss Feng's eyes suddenly became alert, and Miss Feng stared intently into the dark depths of the cave.
Seeing this, Ye Chen understood. Holding the sword, his body tensed up and he was ready to fight.
As if she felt something was wrong between the two of them, Miss Qing stopped bandaging and said, "Ye Chen, Feng, you are..."
"They smelled blood, and there were quite a few of them."
Miss Feng silently took out the mace she had snatched from a royal knight.
We have already talked about it to this point, and Qingzai knows what will happen next, no matter how unclear he is.
Regardless of his wounds, Qing quickly took off his small shield and dagger, which was not much longer than a dagger, and prepared to fight.
roar!
A deafening roar suddenly sounded, and this air wave with a strong fishy breath hit the three of them, and soon a dense red light appeared on the side of the dark cave.
A humanoid monster with long claws appeared in front of the three people. He was still wearing the armor of the Holy Blade Ancient Kingdom. He was obviously transformed by the fallen warriors of the Holy Blade Ancient Kingdom.
"Here we come! Miss Feng, protect Qing."
Ye Chen gave an explanation, and a man rushed out with a sword.
The sound of swords kept ringing in the cave, and the monsters that rushed towards them were unable to stop Ye Chen's charge. Flames were ignited along the way Ye Chen passed, and a large number of monsters were either killed on the spot or burned to death by the flames.
Qingze and Miss Feng followed behind, and the burning flame was automatically extinguished when Miss Feng passed by.
When Ye Chen was fighting in front of him, another roar came from behind.
"Oh, there's one in the back too."
On the surface, Miss Feng was very irritated by this, but deep in her eyes, she revealed a fanatical will to fight.
Ms. Feng's current personality does not like fighting, but her hidden protagonist is a fanatical war fighter.
